i think the president's going to win but let's assume governor romney won. if he wins, that almost certainly means the republicans will hold on to the house and it will be about 50/50 in the senate, more or less the way it is now. you can't filibuster a budget. it's the only thing that doesn't require 60 votes in the senate to pass o as opposed to 51. so a lot of the policymaking will be pushed into the budget and he'll just have to pick up one or two people on that. if you assume that he is going to do what he said he's going to do, i think a lot of his priorities will be enacted. and i think it will be bad on the budget side, as i said. including for medicare t will drive the medicare trust fund out-- dry up the money by 2016. if what i think is going to happen happens and president obama wins, i think that too will break the logjam for a different reason. as senator mcconnell says their number one goal for the last four years has been denying him a second term. as soon as he gets that, they can't deny him a third term. he can't have one anyway. so i think

what does romney do now? we see this morning he has a new ad where he is speaking to the camera for 60 seconds, but is it too late? >> the reason that 47% is working is because it's new information. we don't want to hear the same thing over and over again. voters pay attention to it. >> look at this ad. for the first time romney is speaking directly to the people, is that too late? >> in a simple answer, yes. that should have been done three or four months ago. he solidified his control back in april. why is this ad only running now? when we look back at this campaign, i think we will realize you can't have the same impact as you did then. >> so did they not use that advantage? >> you can use it up to a point, and the fact is if you look at the numbers up to the republican convention, mitt romney was only a couple points behind in ohio. nationwide, it was 1%. this whole thing developed over the last three weeks, you have to give the democrats credit, they're on message particularly from the democratic convent
